The one to get

By Robert

Date: 2026-05-08

I just bought the Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 and wanted a lens hood, because I use a hood on all my lenses. The Canon OEM hood costs $48 and this one costs $15. They look very similar in photos, so it was a no-brainer to get this one. In hand, it has a heftiness to it, being all metal, and has a feeling of quality. Like the Canon one, this hood is very shallow, not much deeper than 1/4". It's like putting on a filter. I leave it on all the time, and it's not really noticeable. The lens cap fits on too, as if the hood is not there. I'm not sure how much it helps with lens protection or flare reduction, but I'm glad to have it.

Does the job perfectly

What can I say for a simple lens hood. It does the job perfectly, doesn't feel cheap, and is significantly cheaper than what Cannon wanted for their version of the same thing. Why they don't just include it with the lens I don't know.

Is the a screw type of lenshood or like the Canon bayonet type? If it is the screw type, how will one attach a filter?
Asked by: Devasahayam
The Vello EW-52 Dedicated Lens Hood is a screw mount hood. To use filters, you would need to attach filters on the lens first and then attach the hood.
